Um, how about, don't buy services from network providers that fail in this way?
I suppose the question is: "how would you know that any particular network had this failure mode?"
Ask detailed questions about how their network is architected. Do they use eBGP multihop anywhere? Do they use BFD on internal Ethernet links? Do they put their peering links in their IGP, or directly into iBGP?
